Can anyone direct me to freeware I can use to compress AIFF files to usable size for website creation? My operating system is: Mac OSX 10.3.9
Thanks.

UserDude,

iToons helps, but I would like to be able to compress even further. For instance, the file I have compresses from 46mb in AIFF to 3.34MB in iToons. Maybe that's as small as it can get without quality loss.

Thanks for the tip.

What about converting it to a different format now. Does it have to stay an AIFF?

UserDude,

Finally figured out if I go to preferences in iToons I can choose the compression and alter the MPEG size in import. Seemed obvious to everyone but me. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. My problems are solved.
